I had started my wife out with a Paladin, thinking that the combination of a melee class and a casting class would work well for her. She played that a while and lost interest. She has played a few classes but seemed to like her mage and necro the most so I would go with the suggestions made in this regard. An enchanter is a difficult class to play well for a new player. Let her learn the mechanics of the game etc first.
